Dutch National Anthem is a banger

Great to see the Aussie rider Matt Dinham in 7th.

Born and bred South African boykie.

queue the GOAT, Marianne Vos... oh, and throw in some Olympic confetti too

Silly comparison. The field is not nearly that stacked for DH or women's pro cycling.

It's insane that someone could mess around in the mud for an hour and beat the world's best, then later that year the same guy dukes it out over 270km and easily is the strongest.

 

We could possibly see Van Aert winning road worlds sometime.

Pidcock and mvdp are the only ones who could realistically win all three over a career, and TP might have missed a really good opportunity to do it at home this weekend.

Matt was born in SA, he raced BMX from under 6 to under 10 (which would have been about 2012) when they left for Aus, Matt's dad was involved in property, and then if my memory serves correctly, he was involved with Clearwater Mall

It's getting rather old, (you'll understand if you watch F1).

Nah, it’s wrong.

Born in S.A. 
They left when he was around 10 if I recall.

I still sold him his first pair of cycling shoes when he was around 6.

His dad is an old hubber, can’t remember the Alia’s.

Anyone know where one can see the highlights?

TT is also going to be monumental! 

Unfortunately for Wout, I reckon Top Ganna is going to smash it.

did you actually bother to read the article?

Not respecting instructions of the organizer due to not attending the mix zone after the podium presentation at the start.

Understandably, Pogacar was not fined for missing the post-race mix zone due to him informing the UCI he was feeling unwell and exhausted.

Yep.

Didn't make the start , "UCI taking the piss"

Was not fined for missing the post-race... he was feeling unwell and exhausted. "Pogacar was in his m03r"

So there's podium presentation before a race and then expected to mingle as if your biggest race to date is not about to take place? 

 

Ya.... Wtf

Men's ITT on now. Ryan Gibbons rolled off a few minutes ago.

Who's your pick?

Remco is my pick. Pogi not ready in his head.
